Uhrichsville and Dennison had a wonderful set of recycling bins for the use of the residents. Thanks to some who chose to use it as a trash disposal site, the bins will be removed. What a shame! There are always those who ruin a good thing for everyone!

I have seen furniture, trash, tires and mattresses there. I wondered how long it would be until it was abolished.

I would like to thank the three gentlemen who pushed my red Mitsubishi off the road in the Mineral City area for me early Friday morning. It was greatly appreciated. I didn't get your names, but thank you again.

I would like the Gnadenhutten Zoning Board to tell us why it voted against rezoning an area to allow a business to come in. Evidently, they're not concerned about the people or the village they represent. I also want to thank the only man on that board who had the courage not to cave in to the demands of the three or four people who were at the meeting to object. He voted in the best interests of this village and its citizens.

In response to a caller complaining about union members who retire and then get rehired, the people who do this are salaried workers, as in office personnel and administration personnel, not hourly workers. The union people I know who retire and come back as part time and make minimum wage, they do their jobs somewhere else.

I'd like to the thank the New Philadelphia Elks and their volunteers for doing an outstanding job of feeding the homeless for the Christmas dinner. It was very, very nice.
